Sensors pack
08/23/2014 at 09:27 • 0 commentsTI (Texas Instruments) SensorTag (http://www.ti.com/tool/cc2541dk-sensor) is a nice dev board that suits well to prototype this project.
SensorTag is packed with a lot of MEMS sensors, including a Kionix KXTJ9 Tri-Axis, User Selectable ± 2g, 4g, 8g, Digital (I2C) Output, 3x3x0.9mm LGA Accelerometer (http://www.kionix.com/accelerometers/kxtj9) and an InvenSense IMU-3000 Triple Axis MotionProcessor™ Gyroscope (http://www.invensense.com/mems/gyro/imu3000.html).
SensorTag is powered by a CR2032 battery cell coin and is BLE (Bluetooth 4.0 Low Energy) enabled.
It is small enough to attach it to any shoe or to simply put it in your socks. The blue thing from the pictures is the size of a credit card.
This is the beast:

Idea #3 - video gestures recognition
08/21/2014 at 10:03 • 0 commentsA WebCam and video processing for gesture recognition.
It would be nice, but seems a little too complicated.

Idea #2 to be investigated
08/21/2014 at 09:53 • 0 commentsTexas Instruments have a nice dev board named SensorTag. It's a small board with sensors (accelerometer, giroscope, etc.) powerd by a 3V CR 2032 coin cell and it's bluetooth enabled. It can be easily attached to slippers or socks and use it instead of mouse. Some dedicated software must be written for foot gesture recognition.

First try: a wireless mouse moved by the feet
